Description
Charming, witty, and delightfully graphic suited for the martini lover. This contemporary pen and ink triptych features three small compositions of olives-each one individually rendered with hand-colored details and arranged like miniature studies in repetition, rhythm, and personality. The center panel includes a standout bright green olive, adding a playful focal moment.
The three drawings are newly matted with double layers of red and olive-green archival matboard, bringing out the warm tones of the olives and giving the series a bold, modern presentation.
They are then housed in a vintage gold giltwood frame with beaded detail, lending a classic, old-world counterpoint to the contemporary art. The lime green ground mat creates a joyful pop of color and makes the whole piece read like a small jewel on the wall.
Dimensions:
* 11" W x 7.5" H overall
* Wired and ready to hang
* Triptych panels individually mounted within frame
Details:
* Contemporary original pen & ink drawings (artist signed "Holland")
* Newly matted in complementary red + olive strata
* Set into a vintage gold giltwood frame with beaded edge
* Fresh, playful, and perfect for kitchen walls, bar areas, breakfast nooks, or gallery groupings
A wonderful small-scale artwork that blends modern whimsy with classic framing, ideal for collectors who love unique, food-themed art, contemporary illustration, or unexpected color moments.
